LinkedIn Headshot

According to a January 2019 article by Pauline Gabrielli, “LinkedIn profiles with professional headshots receive roughly 14 times more profile views and are 36 times more likely to receive a message on LinkedIn. It’s important to look professional, hard-working and approachable.” 

This article was written a year and a half ago.  The thing about living in a pandemic is that meeting people virtually is all that we can do right now.  Your headshot is more important than ever!  When companies are reviewing candidates on LinkedIn, you certainly want every advantage you can get.  The professional headshot might make the difference in getting that message.  The professional headshot makes you look confident, capable, and friendly.  What recruiter wouldn’t want you on their team?

Headshot Examples

LinkedIn is a professional social network and the key word there is professional.  It’s not a place for the selfie, the group cutout, the family photo, or the brand logo.  Those types of images do not present a professional.  People do business with people.  I think I’ve said that 100 times but it’s so true.  The human connection is a powerful force.  You want your headshot to make that human connection in an instant.  Thankfully, photos can do that!  Below are some examples of professional headshots both in and out of the studio.  Background and location can be tailored to suit your style.

Most men think they don’t know how to pose for a headshot…

but it’s not about knowing poses.

It’s about a few simple adjustments that make you look confident and natural on camera.

A couple go-to options (like the classic “GQ” stance, arms crossed, or a relaxed lean) can completely change how you show up.

And the rest? That’s what I guide you through.

📥 If you’re also not sure what to wear, I’ve got you covered—grab my Men’s Style Guide for Headshots through the link in my bio.

📩 Ready for updated headshots? You can book through the link as well.
If you’re just getting started in photography… don’t worry about finding your niche right away.

When I first started, I photographed everything—weddings, babies, families, headshots, corporate… if someone needed photos, I was there.

And that’s how you figure it out.

You don’t find your niche by waiting—you find it by doing the work, learning what you like, and getting better with every session.

Every type of shoot teaches you something different.
Every client builds your experience.

Over time, you start to see what actually fits you—and that’s where your expertise comes from.

📥 If you’re in that phase right now, I’ve put together resources to help—covering lighting, gear, posing, and more.

✨ Grab them through the link in my bio!
Senior portraits are just one piece of what I do 👇🏻

I also work with:
✅ professionals who need updated headshots
✅ business owners building their brand
✅ families capturing this season of life
✅ and actors/models creating strong portfolio images

Different sessions—but the same goal:
helping people show up confidently and authentically on camera

📩 If you’re not sure what kind of session you need, let’s figure it out together—link in bio to learn more.
Senior sessions with moms and sons are always… an experience 😂

A little back-and-forth, a few eye rolls, and somehow we still end up with photos everyone loves.

Honestly, those in-between moments are usually the best part.

📩 DM me if you’ve been putting off senior photos—there’s still time.
